I apparently signed a contract for services not provided. They told me that this education is like a gym membership, even if you don't complete the courses you have to pay the full amount of money in my case over $5000. They only give you 3 days to decide weather or not you like the program or your binded to the contract and have to pay the money. How can they expect you to pay for services not provided, and how can they compare your education to a gym membership. I decided that home education was not for me and have entered a community college. I am trying to buy a house and this money owed is on my credit report, preventing me from getting any loans. At this time I am talking with my lawyer to try to dispute this account but it is holding up my life! To anyone reading this please do not pursue and education from RUE! They are a waste of time and a complete ripoff, and please don't sign papers unless you carefully read the fine print!

So Rue and Edu-Lend is history ?
I was wondering why Edu-Lend had stopped hounding me for money .. I’m way behind on payments, I could’nt afford them because I’ve been out of work.
I tried to find a number for Edu-Lend that works and I see they filed for bankruptcy ..
Now what ?
Not only did I sign a contract. I paid them all monies before I started to take any test because I didn't want to owe them anything. After I paid them off and inquired about starting their program they tried to get me to sign up for some online classes because they said I had not shown any progression. I then once again, explained to Mark the reason why I had not started the program and he refused to send me any materials although I had paid for them. So, I paid them off years ago and because I would not sign up to pay for online classes I was refused any of the materials that I previously paid for?
